A split Hopkinson pressure bar system with a special shape striker has been suggested as the test method by the International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) to determine the dynamic characteristics of rock materials. In order to further verify this test ...
While propagation of dislocations in body centered cubic metals at low temperature is understood in terms of elementary steps on {110} planes, slip traces correspond often with other crystallographic or non-crystallographic planes. In the past, characteriz ...
The purpose of this review is to present the state-of-the-art in dynamic fracture testing methods and fracture behaviour of rock materials. The review begins by briefly introducing the history of rock dynamic fracture and explaining the significance of stu ...
In the current trend toward thicker aluminium plates, a major concern is the stress build-up during quenching which causes distortions during machining. Indeed, cooling rates are not high enough, especially at the core of such thick plates, to prevent any ...
During their lifetime, glass panels are repetitively exposed to thermal stresses. These thermal stresses result from temperature differences within the panel, which most notably cause the edges of the panels to be stressed in tension. When these thermal st ...
To study the deformation and fracture of sandstone under static-dynamic coupled load, a cylindrical specimen under pre-static axial and confining pressure was dynamically loaded using an improved split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). Through the application ...
Dislocation densities have been measured in Ni3Al(Hf) single crystals after deformation at various temperatures and strains. In addition, effective and athermal stresses have been determined by strain dip tests. A model is proposed for the strength anomaly ...
Under certain exposure conditions, femtosecond lasers create nanogratings in the bulk of fused silica for which the orientation is governed by the laser polarization. Such nanostructure induces stress that affects optical and chemical properties of the mat ...
Improvement of single wall carbon nanotube (CNT) bundle mechanical properties through carbon ion irradiation is investigated using molecular dynamics. Increased inter-tube shear and toughness properties through formation of inter-tube cross-links is balanc ...
Myofibroblast contraction is fundamental in the excessive tissue remodeling that is characteristic of fibrotic tissue contractures. Tissue remodeling during development of fibrosis leads to gradually increasing stiffness of the extracellular matrix. We pro ...
